I Little See

I lit­tle see

I lit­tle know

Yet I can fear no ill;

He who hath guid­ed me till now

Will be my lead­er still.

No bur­den yet was on me laid

Of trou­ble or of care

But He my trem­bling step hath stayed

And giv’n me strength to bear.

I know not what be­yond may lie

But look

in hum­ble faith

Into a larg­er life to die

And find new birth in death.

He will not leave my soul for­lorn;

I still must find Him true

Whose mer­cies have been new each morn

And ev­ery ev­en­ing new.

Upon His pro­vi­dence I lean

As lean in faith I must;

The les­son of my life hath been

A heart of grate­ful trust.

And so my on­ward way I fare

With hap­py heart and calm

And min­gle with my dai­ly care

The mu­sic of my psalm.
